A Charlie Brown Christmas tree

Not a great picture, but I thought it was too funny to leave out. It felt strange to us celebrating Christmas in summer, and the tree we got for the occasion collapsed due to the heat.

What a fun memory of the 'less-than-perfect Christmas!

I'm glad you shared this I can relate, not to the heat tho.

Too funny! I can’t imagine the heat during Christmas.

Wow! Love those tones that we now deem as "vintage"

A real Charlie Brown Christmas tree - were you as droopy in the heat?

yes, it must be strange to be celebrating Christmas at 40ºC...V.
